issues with ccw 340

I recently rebuilt the engine and carb in my '72 400. It starts up ok, but it just winds up to high rpms right away. I have tried adjusted both the air and fuel screws but the only thing that seems to work is holding the choke partially closed. Any suggestions?

Woodruff key size

What are these sleds worth?

I'm restoring a '73 400 and all my buddies say its a waste of time and money because its not worth anything. I think they're all full of it, but I am curious as to what it might be worth.
